Out of all the submissions we received in August, this video stood out above the rest. Broadcast Yo Self is the monthly feature where we publish the coolest skate video submitted each month. We basically sift through our submissions (to submit, simply send us your YouTube or Vimeo link on this page) and choose one unlucky brute to partake in the awesomeness that will be known throughout cyber eternity as Broadcast YoSelf. It’s certainly not going to make anybody famous, but we all enjoy some skate inspiration. In addition to the dishonor of appearing on thisisabroadcast.com, the winning skater each month will likely start getting phone calls from potential department store sponsors and babes in burlap bikinis. Check back in a few to see next month’s winner.
Broadcast Yo Self: Jeremy McNamara (SEPTEMBER CHAMPION)
September 4, 2010Transworld Skate & Create
August 24, 2010We always look forward to the TWS Skate & Create video competition. This year we gotta give props to the crew at Etnies for recreating the indoor World Industries park and filming a fun session in Hi-8. Broadcaster Shiloh Greathouse had a nice little cameo. It’ll make you want to check your calendar and count back to 1993. This is one of the many reasons why we love skateboarding. And we love this, too. Coverage courtesy of Transworld & Etnies.
Brian Lotti: Now, Later, and The Chrome Ball Incident
August 16, 2010Brian Lotti is a first-class guy. A pure skate technician. How many other skaters have received this type of praise from the one and only John Cardiel? If you haven’t already seen Brian’s part in Now N Later, or if it has been a while since you’ve watched it, we suggest you sit your arse down and study the skills of the proprietor of the big spin. Yep, that’s right: Mr. Lottery brought you the Bigspin like Mugatu brought you the piano key necktie. The reason we mention this all here is because Lotti is the subject of the latest Chrome Ball Interview. Style never fades, rust never sleeps. Man, lately I’m feeling just about as cushiony as the citizen on patrol lady in this photo.
Skating While Waiting: Joel, Todd, and Jeremy NY Edit

Typical Culture Checks In With Shane Cox
June 22, 2010The dudes at TypicalCulture.com always have something good going on. This week they did an interview with Shane Cox, and it’s definitely blogworthy material. Oh, and here is a product review they did on our urethane a long time ago that we forgot to post. Photos below by Brian Walnum and Ray Zimmerman. Three thumbs up for Shane!
Get Off The Computer and Go Skateboarding Today
June 21, 2010
You shouldn’t need an excuse to go skateboarding, but if you are lacking the motivation just consider the sound of millions of urethane wheels rolling on the pavement across the world today. The first day of Summer: a perfect day to skip school or call your boss and tell him you’re sick because you need to meet your friends at the spot. Here is some inspiration to get you psyched. Have fun.
KCDC Skate Vid Teaser
June 17, 2010Danny Falla and the boys at KCDC have been busy putting the final touches on their new video. It’s gonna be good, so click here to peep the trailer.
They’re Here
April 13, 2010Overdose: Connor Getzlaff
April 5, 2010There are a few new skaters out there that have a calm yet aggressive style which somehow makes you want to go skate every time you see it on video. Connor Getzlaff is definitely one of those skaters. His crew used to call him “Skooter”, and it’s obvious that he has grown out of his nickname. Watch his latest video part to see why Broadcast is backing him.
